WHO WE ARELa Center United is a community coalition made up of individuals, businesses, and agencies who all share a vision for a healthy and resilient community for La Center's youth and families. We believe in the power of positive community change when we all work together.​The coalition formed as a grassroots effort by concerned citizens in 2013. In 2014, La Center United incorporated as a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, and in 2015 we were awarded a federal Drug Free Communities Support Program grant for $125,000 a year for five years. With this funding, we are working to increase community collaboration and reduce substance use and mental health issues facing today's youth.
